Abstract
Technologies, when embedded in instruction can provide unique opportunities for interaction. In this paper, to exploring the influence of digital equipment on interaction quality in Technology-rich Classroom, 54 lectures were observed in Hong Kong, Beijing and Shenzhen, and 626 interaction processes were recorded. The main conclusions are the following: (1) Interaction frequency, interaction object and interaction content in technology-rich classroom has been definitely enriched by digital equipment. Interaction quality in technology-rich classroom is extremely good, with an average score of 2.33 (1-3 scores). (2) From the perspective of "ownership" relationship between digital equipment and student, technology-rich classrooms are classified into three types. "Group-own" classroom is more helpful than "Individual-own" classroom for interaction quality. (3) Interactive whiteboard do not necessarily achieve more performance than multimedia-projector. But, interactive whiteboard could play an important role on interaction quality when 1:1 Pad/Laptop involved in classrooms. (4) Digital equipment and learning activities are collaborating to impact on interaction quality.
